Yukari has created and tested updated tag tables which correspond to the newest rules approved by the Tag Table and Templates Committee. Library IT initiated the automated rollout of these files on Wednesday, and at this point 70% of workstations have been updated. There is no action needed on your part - the update will install automatically when you connect to VPN if you are off-campus, or when you log into your PC if you are on-campus. In the unlikely event that you run into error messages where Voyager indicates that tag tables are "not found" then please let Library IT know through the report a problem form so that we may investigate. A huge thank-you to Yukari S. for crafting the updated tables and doing the legwork to prep them for distribution, to Cvetan T. in Library IT for setting up and running the rollout, and to the many people who helped to draft the policies and do the testing required for these updates to take place. Also, a general thank you to everyone for your patience while the tables were updated - the rollout was frozen through the entire COVID period. Now that this process has completed once we expect to increase the frequency with which these updates take place. Cheers, Steelsen -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
